Re: Re: adding multiple SSLCACertificateFile in vhost.conf

[saibaba Duggirala <saibaba_dug@xxxxxxxxx>]

What if the second cert we took from a diff company

In general the server should be able to support multiple CA certificate files right?Our web browsers does that now -isn't it -correct me please  if I  am wrong

 

so in vhost.conf for scurehttps the following should be able to work -right

#old one

SSLCACertificateFile conf/ssl/nsm_ca.crt

#new one
SSLCACertificateFile conf/ssl/Commercial_CPE_Root_Cert.pem

 

#these are left as before

SSLCertificateFile conf/ssl/nsm.crt

SSLCertificateKeyFile conf/ssl/nsm.key

SSLCertificateChainFile conf/ssl/nsm.crt
